Hi, Bonnie. Thanks for that link. I'll take a look at it. As for the other questions, there are no quotas, etc. The share/NTFS permissions have always been read/write for everyone and full-control for a select few, at least in the main folders. The directory structure is something like this:
"Public" = full read/write Sub-folder of Public, "Product Info"=read-only except for certain select people who need access to change things in there. I, personally, tried to save a file into the "public" folder (copying a link from the desktop for a website) while the user was still logged in. It gave me an error, something to the effect of the folder being "read only." My assistant who has the same permissions on that share as I do tried to delete something off another wide-open sub-folder of the "public" folder and was unable to do so until she rebooted for some strange reason, while I was able, from my desktop, to delete files out of the same folder she was having problems with.

How are the share and NTFS permissions? Any quota software being used? What program are they having trouble saving with? -B From: John Aldrich [mailto:jaldr...@blueridgecarpet.com] Sent: Tuesday, April 21, 2009 11:44 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: DFS issues When I looked at the properties of the shared folder on the second server, the "read only" checkbox was checked.

Thanks, Brian Desmond br...@briandesmond.com c - 312.731.3132 From: John Aldrich [mailto:jaldr...@blueridgecarpet.com] Sent: Tuesday, April 21, 2009 11:05 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: DFS issues We just recently switched from using Synctoy for keeping our two servers (DC/File Server combos) synchronized to using DFS. I just started having some issues after it's been in place for a couple weeks. the "public" file share (really mostly a public file dump) started being read-only to people for some reason. I checked our primary server (in my office) and the permissions and everything we correct. Then today, after it happened again on someone else, I got a wild hair and checked our other server and it had the permission set to "read only" for the "public" share. Anyone ever seen anything like this happen before? Is it just coincidence that about two weeks after we implement DFS the file share goes "read only"??? Any ideas how to keep it from happening in the future? John-AldrichTile-Tools No virus found in this incoming message.
